Franchises in Service-based Markets Sought to Test New Technology

Announcement posted by Shape Your Business 10 Aug 2012

An innovative business analysis tool, SymphonyXP, identifies inefficiencies keeping underperforming service-based franchise outlets from reaching their potential

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA – (10 August 2012) –Australian franchises are being sought to test a new business analysis tool, SymphonyXP, created in Australia specifically for service and retail organisations who operate through a number of branches. One franchise or company from each of a selected industry sector will be invited to receive a comprehensive business assessment encompassing twenty branches and fully subsidised by Shape Your Business, a professional consultancy advising small- to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) on best practices for optimal business performance.

The new technology could help companies that have tried to maintain their bottom line by reducing both costs and customer service to finally break the downward spiral. That should also come as welcome news to consumers.

SymphonyXP is unique among analysis tools in its ability to compare and contrast various branches across a wide range of key factors simultaneously. The tool incorporates the latest business science and executes advanced linear programming based on sophisticated algorithms modelled on proven process improvement strategies.

Mike Reddy, a chartered accountant and principal of Shape Your Business, announced the introductory offer: “A business can only achieve optimum levels of profitability if it is efficient”, said Mr Reddy. “Efficiency isn’t just about cost – it’s also about delivering a better customer experience. With the transparency into business performance provided by SymphonyXP, businesses can achieve operational performance improvements beyond those of any other methodology”.

SymphonyXP would never regard a store unable to make sales because it was short-staffed or under-stocked as being efficient”.

The team at SymphonyXP has created a companion white paper that explains the new technology. Interested parties can download that document from the company’s website at http://symphonyxp.comand learn about the SymphonyXP difference.
